Cool blue tinged foliage is the perfect contrast to this hardy plant's crisp cotton white blooms. Hints of burgundy in the new growth later transform into soft rose blush foliage color it develops in fall. Deadheading the flowers will produce repeat blooms. This deciduous plant matures to a height and width of two to three feet. Uses include mass planting, foundation, low hedge, container, cutting garden, rock garden, wildlife garden, or beautiful border along patios, walkways, and entryways.
